    About GigsRemote

    GigsRemote is a professional talent marketplace based in Sofia, Bulgaria, that specializes in bridging the gap between high-growth international companies and the skilled IT workforce of Southeastern Europe. The platform focuses on long-term remote engagements rather than short-term "gigs," positioning itself as a strategic partner for companies in the US and Western Europe looking to scale their engineering teams through nearshoring. The service differentiates itself from mass-market freelance platforms by maintaining a strictly vetted community of developers and providing managed support throughout the engagement lifecycle. This includes handling the administrative overhead of timesheets, payments, and contract management, allowing clients to focus on software delivery. As a Bulgarian joint-stock company, it operates fully within the EU legal framework, offering a compliant and trust-based alternative to global platforms that often lack localized European oversight.
